Disney Tangled Papercraft Lantern

I was going to create a Tangled lantern myself, but someone in Korea beat me to it. Thank you! The design couldn't be simpler. It is just a single piece of cardstock glued to form a cylinder. And before anyone asks: it is not capable of flying. ^^ The lantern is lit by means of a battery powered tea light, not a candle, because everyone knows an open flame and papercraft don't mix. Right? The two JPG template for the lantern may be found here.  The movie Tangled was released by Disney in 2010.

This paper model is of the character Solid Snake as he appears in the 2008 Nintendo video game, Super Smash Brothers Brawl.

Star Wars First Order AAL Paper Model

The first two movies of the newest Star Wars trilogy have introduced loads of new spaceships and vehicles. In Star Wars: The Force Awakens we had our first glimpse of the New Order's Atmospheric Assault Lander (AAL). An AAL is a troop carrier that functions much like the Cheyenne dropships in the Alien franchise. The AAL can transport up to twenty stormtroopers. Near the tower at the rear of the ship is a gun turret to provide protection for the troops as they disembark. This 28-30mm scale AAL paper model was created by Papierschnitzel. The template for the model may be downloaded here.
